You have to remeber that they are only brokers, they aren't selling the car personally so the only real differences in the landing prices should be their service fee. It's also good to keep in mind that the landing esimates including different things.. eg some don't include compliance others do. Also remember that there are things like shipping, GST and import duty where the price varies depened on what car you are importing, so the brokers can only estimate the cost. You'll find that some brokers have different estimates and sometimes these estimates also tend to be a little conservative and might overstate the expense, so you will often end up spending a little bit less or have a little extra money budgeted incase prices rise or something.

Which payments are you talking about? With the original FOB payment, the supplier in Japan will send your broker the invoice, then your broker will forward the invoice to you. Then you pay the money directly to the supplier in Japan through telegraphic transfer.

The customs broker will send you an itemized bill, which has all the customs and quarantine charges as well as shipping, Import Duty and GST.

The payment to your broker is how you would do a normal payment (cheque, electronic transfer - whatever) as they are in Australia.

Hope this answers your question.

Hi Guys,

I own JDM wholesale and yes we are based in NZ, I would recommend you find someone based in Australia as we concentrate on the NZ market which has quite a different set of rules by which to play. Not saying that we can't sell you a car, but we can't handle the compliance for you.

In saying that though I have an R33 GTS25-t that will be in Aus in the next week or so, as a test car for our own interest, after that we should be better able to assist you once we have the process sorted ourselves. We don't use our customers as test cases.

If you wish to check our reputation in NZ, I can put you in touch with many memebers on SDU (Skylines Downunder NZ) that we have sold cars to.

Cheers

James

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
